The latter, I suppose.
The PEP has the following example:
"""
package/
__init__.py
subpackage1/
__init__.py
moduleX.py
moduleY.py
subpackage2/
__init__.py
moduleZ.py
moduleA.py
Assuming that the current file is either moduleX.py or
subpackage1/__init__.py, following are correct usages of the new syntax:
from .moduleY import spam
from .moduleY import spam as ham
from . import moduleY
from ..subpackage1 import moduleY
from ..subpackage2.moduleZ import eggs
from ..moduleA import foo
from ...package import bar
from ...sys import path
"""
I tried that and it turned out that you have to change
from ...package import bar
from ...sys import path
to
from ..package import bar
from ..sys import path
for the code to run without raising an exception. I therefore assume that
the current implementation erroneously mixes the top level and its
immediate child level, and I suggest that you file a bug report.
